The tubes in the final animation have variable diameter, which I don't think is possible using Tube. But maybe I'm wrong?
Tube
Actually, it can be done, by specifying a list of 'r' values:
data = Transpose@Table[{{x, 0, 0}, 2 + Cos[x]}, {x, 0, 4 Pi, Pi/20.0}]; Graphics3D[{CapForm[None], Tube @@ data}]
Ah, interesting! So now I guess I need to try to figure out what the actual tube radii are...
